  • Basic Instinct

    This podcast is great. The guys remind so much of my old friends. I wanted to give a shout out/thank you for the Basic Instinct episode. Funniest episode that I have heard yet. Maybe that type of movie makes for the best episode?

  • They did a bonus episode just for Turner and Hooch because if it didn’t have T&H was it really 1989? They enlighten the listeners and also give ‘em a little of what they want. A+ content.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Clue (1985 Box Office Flop)
Q: Did you watch this as a kid?
No, I never saw it until recently, and it didn't resonate with me as such since I lacked the nostalgia factor.
Clue (1985 Box Office Flop)
Q: Are there elements that worked for you in this film?
Some of the dialogue and humor worked for me, but I felt the movie grinds along and doesn't deliver enough laughs.
Billy Jack (1971 Future Cult Classic)
Q: What is in our next episode?
We left it up to our audience. We had an audience choice poll based on horny lady vampires. Sadly, it was not Vampiros Lesbos. It was Daughters of Darkness.
Billy Jack (1971 Future Cult Classic)
Q: Had you seen Billy Jack or were you familiar with the Billy Jack phenomenon before this?
I was familiar with the phenomenon...
Duel (1971 First Feature)
Q: Why might the truck in Duel be suggestive of a serial killer?
The multiple license plates on the truck's bumper imply that the driver has run down other drivers in various states.
